No assumptions on spatial decay for the vorticity nor the velocity field are imposed. We study the vorticity equations instead of the original Navier-Stokes equations. As an application, we extend the geometric regularity criterion for the Navier-Stokes equations in the three-dimensional half space under the no-slip boundary condition.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-10-24T03:19:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "no-slip boundary condition", "geometric regularity criterion", "planer navier-stokes equations", "liouville theorem", "application" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1310.6471G" } } }
